KC%KThis TA is created with reference to the idea of Bollinger Bands % B, as known as "Keltner Channel % K" ,just saying.
With length of 20 and true length of 2.5, it looks to cover majority of stock price movements. For reversion to mean traders, this would suit them best because of its visual representation. 0.5 indicates mid band, 1 indicates price going outside of the upper band, and 0 means a breach of lower band.
Hope you would find it useful.

Keltner Channels (KC)
BB and Keltner SqueezeStrategy using the Bollinger band with the Keltner Channels . Watch for the Bollinger bands (blue/red lines) squeezing inside the Keltner Channels (pink dots) for a breakout - this could be up or down so use in conjunction with other indicators.
The blue band is the 2 standard deviation from price, the red is 3 standard deviations. With these, typically if the price bounces off the red then it will retrace a little, (although if there is a massive breakout/down this may not hold). When the bands narrow this is an indicator of consolidation, therefore with a likely upcoming breakup or down.
The pink dots are the Keltner Channels. The strategy says if the bollinger bands come inside the Keltner Channels then this is a strong indicator that the breakout is coming. Sometimes the length of time the squeeze occurs for is indicative of the length/strength of the breakout.
These indicators can be used on all timeframes but higher timeframes will be stronger and more reliable of a trend change.

DepthHouse - Moving Average ChannelsThe indicator Moving Average Channels was created for experimental purposes due to the parabolic moves BTC has made in the recent past.
How it works:
The basis, or center line, is a standard moving average that is set by the user.
The bands are then a customizable percentage of the basis.
Which based on the settings, could serve as possible support and resistance.
DepthHouse – Moving Average Channels has been published for you all to see and try for yourselves.

Simpler Trading SqueezeWhen the Bollinger Bands cross inside the Keltner Channels this indicates a quiet period in the market AKA “it’s in a squeeze” and when the “squeeze fires” this means the Bollinger Bands have crossed outside of the Keltner Channels and price is moving.
The oscillator is a momentum indicator identifying which direction the squeeze has fired. If a squeeze “loses momentum” that means the move is over.
Again, the indicators that embody the Squeeze is available for free on all trading platforms, BUT if you don’t want to go cross eyed looking at all the squiggle lines and want an easy to use visual representation then pick up the Squeeze for your trading platform today.

Multi Timeframe Bands with squeeze and direction detection5 different timeframe BBands which include color coding for squeeze detection and potential breakout direction finding.
You can change BBands to Keltner bands for looking at the ATR of the price instead of STD. You can also label the BBands A-->E to easily pinpoint band and target locations on your chart.
[RichG] Easy MTF Strategy v1.1This is a second attempt at an easy to understand multiple time frame strategy. This one uses ATR for exits. If the position is long, and the price closes below the ATR multiplier, it triggers a close. If the position is short, and the price closes above the ATR/multiplier, it triggers a close. This generates a lot of little trades but is useful because it uses multiple time frames along with cutting losses when the ATR disagrees.
[RichG] Easy MTF StrategyAs we all know, timeframe agreement is a powerful tool. This strategy uses 4 time frames and the Keltner ATR for entries and exits.
Keltner bounce from border. No repaint. V2 (by Zelibobla)WARNING: despite of strategy doesn't use future data (not repaints) it doesn't consider broker`s commissions, which can be harmful for real life high frequency trading. Strategy will definitely fail on non-ordinary security behavior. But if new behavior will get stable, tuned params should make strategy profitable again.
This is the second version of this strategy
I've added emergency stop-loss ordering, parametrized trade size and enabled to switch strategy entry mode. Now it looks good on bigger timeframes such as 5min (ES1!) on screenshot. You are welcome to bring new ideas to enhance performance.

Strategy works well on ES futures short bars like 1min.
Keltner Channels Oscillator v3V2 with Bollinger Bands
Planning to make an STO/KCO hybrid and a model strategy for an all-in-one indicator.
Keltner Channels Oscillator v2A cleaner aesthetic and an introduction to the indicator's uses.
I would also be very appreciative of any Keltner Channels related ideas or concepts you may have run across to add features to this indicator.
Trading Strategy based on BB/KC squeeze**** [Edit: New version (v02) posted, see the comments section for the code *****
Simple strategy. You only consider taking a squeeze play when both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands go inside the Keltner Channel. When the Bollinger Bands (BOTH lines) start to come out of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze has been released and a move is about to take place.
I have added more support indicators -- I highlight the bullish / bearish KC breaches (using GREEN/RED crosses) and a SAR to see where price action is trending.
Appreciate any feedback. Enjoy!
Color codes for v02:
----------------------------
When both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands go inside the Keltner Channel, the squeeze is on and is highlighted in RED.
When the Bollinger Bands (BOTH lines) start to come out of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze has been released and is highlighted in GREEN.
When one of the Bollinger Bands is out of Keltner Channel, no highlighting is done (this means, the background color shows up, so don't get confused if you have RED/GREEN in your chart's bground :))
Color codes for v01:
----------------------------
When both the upper and lower Bollinger Bands go inside the Keltner Channel, the squeeze is on and is highlighted in YELLOW.
When the Bollinger Bands (BOTH lines) start to come out of the Keltner Channel, the squeeze has been released and is highlighted in BLUE.
